1. The Good – used for communication where distance no longer matter.
2. The Bad – allowed people to hide behind screens and avatars and it has taken over our lives rather than us being in control.
3. The Ugly – it has become a common cause to broken relationships, self-centeredness and egocentricity. It is also for frauds and child abuse.
